I don't think they actually do. There wasn't a official competitive tournament ran during WW2 They had 19 2 years before the war broke out and then 8 years later after the won ended, they won their 20th title.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your probably thinking of their First World War titles, which are counted because the league carried on; unlike during WWII when there were regional leagues.

Oh and the fact he knocked us back twice as a player and told McLeish his media commitments were his priority rather than joining his coaching team when he was needed. I'll remember the whole package, the complete McCoist.  Was on the Ibrox tour yesterday mate and the guy that takes you round said McCoist is coming back to the club this season, asked what role but he wouldn't tell me... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The closest to Miller for Rangers goals right now is Waghorn at 30, then it's Wallace with 22 then McKay with 15. Shame for Waggy because he could've easily gotten 40+ last season Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
